performs Futaba electronic motor speed controller (ESC), MC960CR, MC940CR, MC-
950CR, MC851C, MC602C, MC402CR, etc. variable frequency and other data changes
at the T4PV transmitter. However, some data changes require a PC and Link software.
This function is used by connecting the ESC directly to the transmitter. The T4PV
power switch is used at the display side. Use the various optional servo extension cords
according to the distance between the transmitter and ESC. The last data read from
ESC to T4PV or the last data written from T4PV to ESC is saved to the T4PV. Since the
data for each model memory can be saved, the data of up to 40 models can be saved.
-When the T4PV battery voltage drops, the display switches to low battery display. Therefore, use this function when there is am-
ple battery capacity remaining.
-Also connect the battery at the ESC side.
-Note: Do not read to the T4PV an MC940/960CR whose speed was set to over 99990rpm by
